of the Southern Leaguer's are "350-only" subjects. So, it isn't certain that these images were T206's before they were T210's.
Three of these (off the top of my head) are Hart, Smith (Shrev.) and Thebo. So, I would not be so sure that all images were
first T206's....because from a printing standpoint the colorless T210 images were first thru the press.

The sets that you have questioned T213, T214, and T215 were not slaves to the images, they were slaves to the 6 color lithograph printing process which T210 were not. Just because they had a Joe Jax image didn't mean that they had six plates to print it in a lithograph format.
And we know for a fact that they did not add any new 6 color prints after the completion of the T206 set to later sets that used the identical images.
And lastly after doing further research today I can tell you that James Lafitte - Macon, and Edward Reagan - New Orleans previously being shown as birth place unknown were both born in Georgia.
And for you Ted, Billy Nattress - Buffalo was born in PA.
